Goran Višnjić and Robert Glenister will appear in Series 12 of Doctor Who.
With the countdown well and truly underway for the return of Doctor Who, television and film stars Goran Višnjić and Robert Glenister are set to appear in an episode of Series 12 as the show makes an explosive return in early 2020.
After previously starring in Doctor Who over three decades ago, Robert Glenister is no stranger to the TARDIS and as he takes on a new character, it’s safe to say emotions will be charged as he meets the Doctor and her friends...
Making his Doctor Who debut, Goran Višnjić has plenty of experience around doctors after playing Luka Kovač on the television series ER, but how will he fare when he comes face to face with the Time Lord?
Robert Glenister said:
“I first appeared in Doctor Who in The Caves of Androzani at the tender age of 24 in 1984. Thirty-five years later I got to be in it again at the not so tender age of nearly 60. How time flies!”
Speaking ahead of his debut Doctor Who appearance, Goran Višnjić said:
“I’ve always been a huge fan of Doctor Who, so when the offer to play one of my favorite people in history came, it made me so happy to be part of the show and it turned into this awesome, dream job!"
Matt Strevens, Executive Producer said:
“One of the great joys of Doctor Who are the legendary actors who want to come and join in the Doctor’s adventures. We were thrilled to welcome Goran and Robert, whose worked we’ve loved and admired for years. They create two iconic characters who are going to delight and entertain.”
Doctor Who will return with Jodie Whittaker reprising her role as the Thirteenth Doctor alongside Tosin Cole (Ryan), Mandip Gill (Yaz) and Bradley Walsh (Graham) who are all returning for their second series.
Doctor Who makes an explosive return to screens in early 2020 for another action-packed series of thrilling adventures.
